30°
Here's why:
Using the well-known Pythagorian theorem we can reckon how long the hypotenuse is:
c^2=6^2+36*3 -> c=12
Knowing that sin(a)=a/c=6/12=0.5 the measure of the angle in degrees is 30°
Hope could help :)

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

One leg of a right triangle measures 6 inches.

Leg 1 (Opposite) = 6

The other leg measure 6\sqrt{3} inches.

Leg 2 (Base ) = 6\sqrt{3}

Let the measure of angle opposite of the leg 6 inches be Ф

Using trigonometry identity

\tan\theta=\dfrac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Base}}

\tan\theta=\dfrac{6}{6\sqrt{3}}

Cancel 6 from top and bottom

\tan\theta=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt3})

\theta=30^\circ

Hence, The measure of opposite angle of leg 6 inches is 30°

Find the solution to the system of equations. You can use the interactive graph below to find the solution. { y = x − 4 y = 4 x
kumpel [21]

ANSWER

x=-2,y=-6

EXPLANATION

First equation:

y = x - 4

Second equation:

y = 4x + 2

Let us equate the two equations and solve for x.

This implies that;

4x + 2 = x - 4

Group similar terms to obtain:

4x - x =  - 4 - 2

Simplify:

3x =  - 6

Divide both sides by 3

x =  - 2

Put x=-2 into any of the equations.

I will put x=-2 into the first equation:

y =  - 2 - 4

This implies that,

y =  - 6

-2 2/3 divided by 4/3
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule(s): a\frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot c + b}{c}, \frac{-a}{b}=-\frac{a}{b}, \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{a\cdot \:d}{b\cdot \:c} \\2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{2\cdot 3+2}{3}\\=\frac{8}{3}\\=\frac{-\frac{8}{3}}{\frac{4}{3}}\\=-\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{\frac{4}{3}}\\=\frac{-8\cdot \:3}{3\cdot \:4}\\= \frac{-24}{12}\\= -2
